Overview

This application note provides a technical overview of the PR533 evaluation board, identified as PCB2235. The PR5331C3HN is a highly integrated transceiver IC for contactless communication at 13.56 MHz, featuring an embedded 80C51 microcontroller and a USB 2.0 full-speed interface. The board supports multiple protocols including ISO/IEC 14443A/B, MIFARE Classic, FeliCa, and Jewel cards, and is compliant with EMVCo v2.0.1 specifications. The document includes hardware design details such as schematics, top and bottom PCB layout diagrams, and a full Bill of Materials. It also demonstrates how the PR533 can interface with an external EEPROM via I2C and bridge to a TDA8029 contact smart card reader.

Use Cases

  • Evaluation of PR533 NFC transceiver features
  • Development of USB-based contactless card readers
  • Reference design for ISO/IEC 14443 compliant reader/writers
  • Prototyping EMVCo v2.0.1 compliant systems
  • Integrating contact and contactless reader technologies using TDA8029
